At least two people have been arrested in Queensland for saying "from the river to the sea" today at a protest. I think we all knew this day was coming. A dark milestone in our homegrown authoritarian decline.
w0w, that's *checks notes* "over $3,000" per body

My heart is with everyone facing floods up north. In Bundaberg it's the worst in 10 years, in Katherine the worst in decades. And more rain is possible.
Rolling disasters will keep devastating Northern Australian communities as governments make the climate crisis worse.
Jeremy's reaction is a good measure of how this failure will be received among the wider public, not only as it concerns the NACC, but what it suggests about the broader ability of Australian institutions to hold anyone of significant power or influence to account for anything in future.
Gas export companies are reaping billions from Australian resources while paying little or no tax! Add your name to the call to tax the gas industry fairly.

"The government might be wishing Australia taxed its LNG exports as much as the royalties on iron ore, and better still, coal.
"LNG prices are soaring, but we only get 2% of that on top of the company tax, compared with 7% for iron ore and 13% for coal."

Canavan? Bloody Hell.
I think the media needs to see there is no opposition. Liberals are sunk and Nationals will be driven to a fringe party that once represented farmers but now gets it’s policy from Canavan’s lobbyist mates.

Done in March 2023.
Joined in 1998 as a unionist.
If you’re hanging on as a fabian or socialist - there is no place for you in this ALP.
Opt out of support through union dues and tell your union to cut allegiance.
We need a workers party.
We need a party for the many, not the few

If you’re part of the ALP and don’t like what they’re doing… now is the time to say so. Loudly and in any way possible. Resign, burn your membership card, whatever you need to do. Act now before there’s nothing left to save.
Newspeak
Next comes the thought crimes and people being erased from photos.
Really looking for support for my “everyone put your money in a pile and let’s split it” bill. Billionaires aren’t exempt. Earners under 120k just put in 10%.
Considering the nonsensical bills being put up currently, we should give this one a go.

Australians don't want to get dragged into Trump & Netanyahu’s illegal war on Iran. Labor shouldn’t be sending troops to help a military that’s killed 150 schoolchildren in a primary school bombing. To keep civilians safe we should be urging peace, not sending missiles.
Nearly 100 Australian military personnel will be sent to the Gulf this week with the military equipment. This follows the illegal war launched by the US and Israel on Iran over a week ago that has already escalated, causing chaos across the region and across the global economy.
The announcement today from the Albanese Labor Government to send an E-7A Wedgetail aircraft to the Gulf and provide medium-range air-to-air missiles to the UAE shows Australia has been fully dragged into another US forever war.
Another post just made me think that this really is the “evil Spinal Tap of US administrations.”
We reported yesterday that footage showed a US Tomahawk missile hitting a facility metres from the school. In the footage, smoke could already be seen rising from the vicinity of the girls’ school. www.bellingcat.com/news/2026/03...
We also matched details of the remnants to publicly available imagery of Tomahawk components in the Open Source Munitions Portal (OSMP) @munitionsportal.bsky.social osmp.ngo/model/tomaha...
Images published by Iranian state media show remnants of a US Tomahawk missile at a girls’ school in Minab.
It’s not possible to independently verify the provenance of the remnants from this imagery alone. But Bellingcat previously detailed how a Tomahawk missile hit a structure next to the school.
Reporter: You promised the Iranian people you would help them.
Trump: Will I help them? I'd like to, if they can behave, but they've been very menacing,
Reporter: You just suggested that Iran somehow got its hands on a tomahawk and bombed its own elementary school on the first day of the war. But you're the only person in your government saying this. Why?
Trump: Because I just don't know enough about it.
Trump: All of the people that died through the roadside bombs. Died and are right now walking around with no legs.
I'm hearing the banks are running out of unleaded 91
1908 15k women in NYC protested for better conditions. The colours (green, white, purple) were the colours of the Women's Social & Political Union (WSPU).
First IWD was marked in 1911 in Europe.
The Bread and Peace strike by Russian women occurred in 8 March 1917. Lenin acknowledged this in 1922.
Stop the war pigs.
Remembering the time a Labor hack said that the rise in petrol prices due to the horrific bombing of Iran is actually good for the environment
MARCH FOR AUSTRALIA 3: A POISONED WELL [video]
watch: youtu.be/6QpWCCQP3vc
You'd think Marching for Australia would be very popular on the National Day of Racism, 26 January. But it was not. Here, I have taken the time to consider why.
This seems like a really good thing for the environment.
Speaking of Minns, turns out his own security expert, Alexandra Caples warned that expanding police powers and restricting protest rights could “increase radicalisation”. She was promptly ignored

I know a bunch of groypers run the administration’s Twitter accounts but just in terms of basic facts: 1) Iran or Iranians didn’t carry out Oct 7, & 2) no babies had their heads cut off on Oct 7. Just total atrocity propaganda that was long ago debunked but still pushed by Trump
To counter blatant McCarthyism from our callow political class, I suggest looking at donations, invitations, trips etc from so called “advocacy” groups that are actually linked to the Israeli Govt.
Allegiance, obedience or adherence.
Minns, Albanese, the QLD bloke, Wong - any quid pro quo?
